Hello, my darling darlings, and welcome to another fabulous edition of Pink Tutu Sparkles, the only blog in the world that’s devoted entirely to all things pink, tutu, and fabulous!
This is me, Alex (Pink Tutu Sparkles to you!), your favourite tutu-clad traveller and performer extraordinaire. Today I'm bursting with excitement because I'm headed to the Midlands for a performance in the lovely town of Kettering. Oh, the thrill of being a travelling drag artist!
You know, I always say, "Every town has its own sparkle" and Kettering certainly has plenty of charm and character. This beautiful little town boasts a rich history with stunning Victorian architecture. Now, we all know a fabulous outfit needs a stunning backdrop, right?
Now, if you follow me, you know that I am not just a drag queen, but also a devoted fan of all things ballet. And as I always say, “It’s never too late to add some pink tutu to your life, love.” That's why I was extra thrilled to learn that Kettering has a wonderful ballet school called "The Dance Studio" offering a range of classes from classical ballet to contemporary, tap, jazz, and even Bollywood! It's like a dream come true.
So before my big performance, I simply had to visit the dance studio and give those adorable dancers some "Pink Tutu Sparkles" inspiration!
But you know me, I never arrive without my fabulous pink tutu outfits! I always have at least one outfit tailored specifically to the destination – imagine a vibrant hot pink tulle explosion against the backdrop of a historic Kettering church – picture it, darling, it’s spectacular!
Now, darling, if you think a pink tutu only looks fab in a theatre or ballet studio, think again! You'd be amazed by how well a pink tutu blends into a town like Kettering. Just try picturing a walk through Kettering's lovely Market Place, surrounded by traditional English pubs, the Market Hall, and all the charm of a typical British market - and then imagine me strolling through, in my full Pink Tutu Sparkles regalia, the envy of everyone around. Think a glamorous fairytale on cobblestones - fabulous, right?!
Talking of fairytale adventures, did I tell you I travelled to Kettering by train? I must confess, there’s something incredibly glamorous and elegant about a good train journey. I just adore the old-fashioned, plush carriages, especially those classic crimson carriages that remind me of some magical Victorian era adventure. Not to mention the little things - like a warm cuppa, watching the countryside fly past, and the subtle scent of vintage leather from the seats. It's just the perfect way to set the stage for an enchanting evening of glitter and pink!
After arriving at Kettering station and checking into a gorgeous hotel, I decided to explore this charming little town a little before my performance. Of course, no trip is complete without a little retail therapy. Kettering has so many darling boutiques - all kinds, from quaint antique shops to vibrant clothing stores.
Oh, don’t forget my most treasured souvenir, darling. Remember I mentioned that I adore vintage clothing? You won’t believe the exquisite find I stumbled upon at a little independent shop in Kettering - a beautiful, vintage hat trimmed with delicate feathers and sparkling beads. A total Pink Tutu Sparkles moment, don’t you think?
Oh, darling, you simply can’t come to Kettering without taking a stroll along the peaceful River Ise, and taking in the sights. It's just so tranquil and romantic - almost like something out of a ballet scene. And let me tell you, it's the perfect setting to reflect on a day of pink, sparkle, and joy in Kettering.
Now, you know the fun doesn’t end there! Later tonight, I'll be performing at a vibrant pub called “The Queen of Hearts”. Of course, I’ll be doing what I do best - showering Kettering with glitter and sunshine, and proving to everyone there that a touch of pink tutu goes a long way! Just wait until you see the magnificent pink, sequined masterpiece I'll be wearing – it’s a true triumph of colour, creativity, and sheer joy. And I will, of course, be rocking my sparkly heels to boot, making every step feel like a victory lap in a glorious rainbow of glitter.
This is what being Pink Tutu Sparkles is all about. We aren’t just wearing a pink tutu – we’re embodying pink tutu. We are bringing our own personal rainbow of glitter to every corner of the world – spreading love, joy, and a bit of sparkle along the way.
So whether you’re dancing on a stage, exploring a town, or simply strolling through the park, always remember that the best kind of magic happens when you embrace your own unique style, put on a pink tutu and show the world your inner sparkle!

Until then, live your dreams!
Always, Pink Tutu Sparkles
